DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, mix together the butter, vanilla and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Sift together the flour and corn starch. Add the flour mixture to the bowl and stir by hand until a dough forms. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and press into miniature muffin cups. Mold dough into the shape of the cup.
In each cup, put 1 teaspoon of pineapple preserves. In a small bowl, Mix sugar and egg until well blended. Stir in the flaked coconut and put 1 teaspoonful of the coconut mixture onto each of the pineapple filled tarts. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Cookie crusts should be slightly golden. Cool tarts in the pan for at least 15 minutes before attempting to remove. Lightly tap mini muffin pans on the counter to loosen tarts. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar before serving.

This was so easy and I found the trick to get them out of the pan. I only waited about 5 min. The tarts were still warm and they came right out. The last pan I ran to the store and they cooled completely and they just would not come out. I popped them back in the oven for a few minutes and then slid a butter knife along side and they lifted right out. This is really a keeper and will be on my cookie list a long time.

My daughter was attending a Hawaiian themed party and needed to bring a "themed dish" and I tried this recipe with much success. They were beautiful and tasted wonderful. Everyone enjoyed them and raved about them!

I followed this recipe exactly and these tarts did not just "pop out". In fact, they were all stuck inside the pan and came out in crumbs. I do have to say the crumbs were very tasty. The 3 that did come right out of the pan, the coconut topping popped off in one whole piece. I'm very bummed, I was going to bring these to a luau party. I won;t make this again.

The recipe doesn't sound that great, but these are heaven. They were a big hit at the Luau. I recommend muffin cups because they are hard to get out of the pan.

Fun recipe! A little involved with the molding of the crust, but fun none-the-less. In response to difficulties removing tarts after baking here's a suggestion: I had a plate handy with flour that I placed my palms in, rubbed both hands together and rolled the 1 inch dough balls before molding into tart pan. After 15-20 min of cooling, I covered pan with a kitchen towel, flipped tarts into towel and used the back of a butterknife to "tap" the tart out of the pan. It worked beautifully. No crumbly mess!

I made these for a company picnic last summer- and they were really fun! The crust was great. I used apricot-pinapple preserves, and they turned out wonderfully. Some of them were a little difficult to get out of the pan, but I just used a paring knife. I lost a couple, but I had plenty to serve.

I really must've done something wrong since I'm the first to give less than 5 stars, but they were VERY crumbly. I had a very hard time getting them out of the pan on the first batch, even after being cooled over 15 minutes and tapping the bottom of the pan as instructed. On the 2nd batch I lightly sprayed the pan, but this didn't help. I found that the best way to get them out without totally destroying them was to run a knife around the edge first, then scoop out with a small spoon. They tasted GREAT but I had only 20 that looked presentable enough to bring to the Hawaiian party. Unfortunely, I HAD to eat all of the crumbly ones:-) I did find pineapple preserves by the way, made by Smuckers. I'd love to try this recipe again if I only knew what went wrong with the cookie dough.
